Known as the Naturehood, this master-planned community is not just about homes; it’s about creating a thriving environment where families can grow, connect, and enjoy life to the fullest.

Family-Friendly Amenities
Whisper Valley is designed with families in mind, offering an array of amenities that cater to all ages. The community features miles of hiking and biking trails, parks, playgrounds, and green spaces that invite outdoor activities and family bonding. The community’s geothermal heating and cooling, as well as solar panels, reflect our commitment to sustainability—teaching children the importance of eco-friendly living from an early age.
For parents seeking a health-conscious lifestyle, Whisper Valley’s fitness center and organic community gardens are perfect places to stay active and introduce kids to healthy habits. Regular community events, from our monthly Move Mountains Artisan Market to holiday celebrations, create opportunities for families to connect with neighbors and build lasting friendships.
Home to Austin’s Next Big Park
We mentioned Whisper Valley’s unparalleled access to parks, trails, and green space, but the true crown jewel of the community will come in the form of a 600-acre signature park. Whisper Valley Park, will be a haven for Whisper Valley families. This public Austin park will feature nature trails and programed areas including playgrounds, community gardens, a natural amphitheater for events, and an estimated 20 miles of trails connecting to Austin’s Walter E. Long Park & Lake and the Travis County trail system.
Education
Access to quality education is a top priority for families, and Whisper Valley delivers. The community is served by Del Valle Independent School District, which earned an ‘B’ accountability rating from the Texas Education Agency in 2022 and recently opened a Early College High School featuring a Gigafactory Texas P-TECH Manufacturing Studio.
Within a short drive, parents will find Joseph Gilbert Elementary, Del Valle Middle School, and Del Valle High School, all offering robust programs and dedicated teachers who prioritize student success.
Looking ahead, Whisper Valley is planning for even more educational opportunities right within the community. A new high school is currently under construction, set to open in fall 2026, with future plans for an elementary and middle school. This forward-thinking approach ensures that families will have access to excellent education from the earliest years through graduation.
A Bright Future
Whisper Valley’s family-focused design and forward-thinking amenities make it an ideal place for parents looking to plant roots and provide their children with a nurturing environment. With great schools and an abundance of activities, Whisper Valley offers everything a family could want.
